BUYING MY CAR ON FINANCE

Close

Who is my finance agreement with?
Our primary lender for all RRG Direct finance agreements is the manufacturer of your chosen dealership. If you are declined for finance by them for any reason, you will be notified and given the opportunity to fund your vehicle using one of our alternative partners.

How long does my finance application take to process?
Your finance application is processed instantly upon you applying for your car finance. Usually the decision process is made in seconds. We will let you know if your application is successful via the online platform and also by email. If your finance application is unsuccessful, one of our RRG Direct Team will contact you to discuss further options.

In some circumstances our chosen lender partner may ask you to complete additional customer checks prior to agreeing your finance agreement. This could include (but not be limited to), identity checks, confirmation of personal details such as date of birth or address, and evidence of affordability. In this instance, we will make you aware of any evidential documentation that is required. You will be asked to meet these requirements and then we will be able to proceed with your finance application.

Am I eligible for credit?

Whether or not you are eligible for car finance will depend on several factors including (but not limited to) your age, employment status, financial situation, and affordability. After submitting your proposal to the manufacturer of your chosen dealership, we will be notified if they require further information to support your application. If they decline your application, we will offer you an opportunity to fund your vehicle with an alternative lender.

You must be over 18 to apply for finance, and acceptance is subject to status. In some circumstances, a guarantee may be needed. If you're worried about getting car finance, you can take advantage of our free motor credit check.


What are the different types of car finance?
When purchasing your vehicle on finance, you will have the opportunity to fund it using one of two products; PCP (personal contract purchase) and HP (hire purchase). The difference between the two products is as follows:

Hire Purchase

Hire Purchase is a little like a mortgage on a house where you pay an initial deposit and then pay the balance over an agreed period of time in equal monthly payments. Typically, agreements can run from 1 to 5 years. The vehicle remains the property of the finance company until you make the last payment. If you settle early, you will be offered a rebate of some of the interest. However, you may find, with a small initial deposit, if you settle very early, the amount owing may be more than the vehicle is worth.

Hire Purchase may suit buyers who plan to keep their vehicles for a longer period of time, perhaps longer than the agreement term, who have a large deposit or want a simple agreement with no commitment at the end of the term.

Personal Contract Purchase

Like Hire Purchase, an initial deposit is paid with monthly payments over an agreed period of time. However, the final payment at the end of the agreement is significantly larger than under a normal Hire Purchase agreement, usually several thousand pounds. This is often called a Guaranteed Manufacturers Future Value (GMFV) or Balloon Payment. This makes the payments in-between the initial deposit and the large final payment much smaller than with Hire Purchase and the agreements are shorter.

You must pay this large final payment, the GMFV, at the end of the agreement. However, the finance company will guarantee that your vehicle will be worth at least this value as long as it is in a suitable condition and covered less than an agreed mileage limit. This gives you three options:

You can hand the vehicle back to the finance company to make the final payment.

You can pay the large final payment and keep the vehicle.

Usually, your vehicle should be worth more than the final payment. So you can part exchange the vehicle, and use the extra that it is worth, after paying off the large final payment, for a new vehicle.

Personal Contract Purchase may suit buyers that want a new or nearly new vehicle and fully intend to change it at the end, or before the end, of the agreement or want a more expensive vehicle than may be available to them using other forms of finance. The disadvantage could be that customers feel forced into changing their vehicle every 2 or 3 years to avoid paying the large final payment.

Will a hard search be registered against my credit file?
Yes, by applying for finance online our finance company will perform a hard credit search against your name and details to ascertain whether they can lend you the amount required to purchase your car. If you're worried about getting car finance, you can take advantage of our free motor credit check. Our soft credit search will provide you with an instant credit valuation so you can see how likely you are to be accepted for credit without affecting your credit score, so you have peace of mind when applying for finance through RRG Direct.

What if I am declined finance?
If you are declined finance with our primary lender, we will offer you an alternative. We work with a number of carefully selected credit providers who may be able to offer you finance for your purchase. We are only able to offer finance products from these providers.

What if I have a bad credit history?
We work with a chosen panel of flexible lenders which enable us to fund customers with varying credit situations. In most cases we are able to find a suitable lender for our individual customer’s personal circumstances. If you are declined with any of our lenders, you will be notified and asked if you would like us to propose you to an alternative.

MAKING CHANGES TO MY ORDER

Close

I would like to amend or cancel my order
Our terms and conditions around amending or cancelling your order can be found here. We would however like to try and help you before you cancel your order, so please contact one of our RRG Direct Team on 0161 742 2488 or via email rrgdirect@rrg-direct.com to discuss this further.

If you would like to amend your order you can speak to a member of our RRG Direct Team and they will happily try to accommodate any amendments to your order.

What can I do if I don’t like the car and have changed my mind?
If you change your mind about an order for a vehicle that you have placed online, you can cancel your order at any time before delivery. Please notify us of your decision by sending a clear written statement of your intent to rrgdirect@rrg-group.com. Our RRG Direct Team will then liaise with you and process your cancellation with the relevant RRG centre.

You may also cancel your order up to 14 days after delivery. However, please note the following important information:

  • -You must return the vehicle to us at your own expense, or alternatively you can opt to pay us to collect the vehicle from you.
  • -Although you are entitled to test drive the vehicle on delivery, if the vehicle loses any value as a result of handling by you which is not necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the vehicle (for example, if you damage it or run up excessive mileage), we will be entitled to deduct the reduction in value from any reimbursement.
  • -If you have part-exchanged your old vehicle, we will repay to you the value we assigned to the vehicle as part of your purchase, less any payments we have had to make to clear any outstanding finance.
  • -If you originally chose to have the vehicle delivered to you, rather than to collect it from us, we will not reimburse any delivery costs.


If you wish to cancel after delivery, please notify us of your decision by sending a clear statement of your intent to rrgdirect@rrg-group.com. Our RRG Direct Team will then liaise with you and process your cancellation with the relevant RRG centre. We will reimburse all payments due (subject to any relevant deductions as noted above) within 14 days of the vehicle being returned, using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction (unless we agree otherwise between us).

If you have funded the vehicle via a finance agreement with one of our chosen finance partners, we will liaise with our partner to unwind your finance agreement should you wish to cancel your purchase and finance contract. We must receive notification of your desire to cancel your purchase and your finance agreement within 14 days of finance activation. Please note that you will be liable for any cancellation charges incurred as a result of unwinding the agreement.

Can I cancel my car finance but still purchase the vehicle using an alternative method?
The ‘cooling off’ period of 14 days (officially known as your Right to Withdraw) does give you the option to cancel the finance agreement without affecting the purchase of your vehicle. Exercising your right to withdraw enable you to keep the vehicle and fund the purchase using an alternative financing method. The balance (as confirmed by the lender) will need to be paid within 30 days of withdrawing from the agreement.



Please refer to the section regarding your right to withdraw on your finance documentation. It will give you instructions on how to withdraw from the agreement. This would include any fees if they are applicable.

Entering your vehicle details into RRG Direct will enable you to obtain a part-exchange value.  You will need to answer questions around the condition of your vehicle.  This will enable us to provide you with the most accurate market value.

HOW SAFE IS IT TO BUY A CAR ONLINE?

However, we appreciate that a car being delivered by an individual may potentially carry a higher risk for the customer due to the exposure in human interaction.To minimise this risk, we have adopted a stringent protocol which will be adopted by any driver delivering a car to a customer that has been purchased online.

You can find the latest information on COVID-19 on the information pages of the UK Government and the World Health Organization.
